Annual Physical Movement Wellness Exams
Inspire IM is proud to partner with Align Physical Therapy & Wellness to provide Annual Physical Movement Wellness Exams for our existing patients. These exams are a proactive, head-to-toe physical assessment by Dr. Kristen Cooper, MSPT, DPT, CSCS, LMT. Unlike typical physical therapy visits that focus on rehabbing an injury after it occurs, a wellness exam is designed to help you prevent injury and optimize your health before they happen
Think of it as routine maintenance for your body—just like you'd service your car even if it's running fine.
These exams are for patients with stable medical status who are looking to proactively improve their physical health. It's especially beneficial if you want to:
- Lower your risk of chronic disease, such as obesity, diabetes, hypertension, or arthritis.
- Improve your general fitness level and overall functional mobility.
- Maximize your performance for specific athletic goals.
- Learn how to build muscle mass. Ideal for women going through menopause and GLP-1 patients.
Even if you feel healthy, a wellness screen can help catch silent issues. Our goal is to assess your body from head to toe to identify hidden risks, optimize mobility, and provide personalized strategies for your well-being.
The exam helps you to:
- Prevent Injury: Identify muscle imbalances, joint restrictions, or movement dysfunctions before they lead to pain or injury. This is especially helpful for athletes, active individuals, or anyone starting a new fitness routine.
- Optimize Mobility & Function: Evaluate posture, balance, flexibility, strength, and coordination. This helps you move more efficiently and safely in daily life or during sports.
- Establish a Functional Baseline: We track physical performance metrics annually over time (e.g., range of motion, strength, gait) to create a baseline. This is useful for monitoring your progress after surgery or injury, or as you age.
Your exam will include a thorough head-to-toe assessment, including:
- Posture and alignment check
- Gait and balance assessment
- Joint range of motion, muscle strength, and flexibility tests
- Core stability and dynamic movement screening
We also compare your results to age norms to give you a clear understanding of your physical status.
At the end of your exam, you will receive a personalized Individual Wellness Packet with all of your biometrics and our findings. This includes:
- A Body Composition Analysis.
- Personalized Recommendations based on the findings, including suggested exercises, stretches, or ergonomic changes to help your body move and feel better.
- Injury-prevention strategies or performance-enhancing guidance tailored to your needs.
- A Customized Referral for ongoing regular care as needed.
